Chapter 1122 ‘Sparring’ part 2
Ichigo, Uryu, and Chad planned to get their battle senses back. But they couldn't even prepare for what they wanted to do as all their attention and focus were stolen at the current scene playing out in front of them.
A series of explosions that shouldn't be possible without high-tier Kidou techniques, destructive Zanpakuto, Cero, or a strong Fullbring ability. However, the thing that concerns them the most is the fact that none of them seems to be holding back in this 'sparring' and the reason why they came to this conclusion is that after a few seconds of fighting, all three girls are tattered and bloodied, with one of them even breaking their arm.
Naturally, Ichigo and the rest tried stopping them but they don't seem to hear anything that they are shouting and the strange invisible wall dividing the training ground stops them from even approaching.
Thankfully, they soon stopped, albeit, not the way they expected.
They could see that they were in a deadlock and even though the men couldn't understand what was happening most of the time, they could still tell who was at a disadvantage, which was the fox girl. Although she took the initiative in the beginning, the other two seemed to have more anti-personnel skills and they also knew their way around her techniques, resulting in the fox girl slowly sliding into a disadvantage.
It all stopped when the frustration surfaced on the fox girl's face and her hair started turning white along with her tails while also sprouting three more.
"Stop! Stop! Kunou! You win!" Claire immediately.
Even Tanis, who was still heating up, instantly cooled down when she saw what was happening and was in full agreement that they were done.
Kunou's hair which was about to turn white suddenly started receding back along with her tails, "...But I haven't done anything yet..." She complained while pouting.
Claire approached her with a wry smile while clutching her newly healed broken arm, "This place and this barrier won't be able to contain your [Beast God]."
Still haven't stopped pouting, Kunou replied, "I can control it better now, though! I won't destroy this place using that... Probably!"
"No, no, no!" Tanis came flying in and started casting Healing Magic on everyone, "Look at me! Goosebumps! [Beast God's] Divinity is already no joke but it also has a tinge of a Dragon's Outrage! Even though you might be able to control it for a minute or two, you'll definitely lose control of it." Despite Tanis' ability to focus more on direct and close combat, she's actually the best at Healing Magic among their group, which included Serafall, the former Devil King, and Kisuke without his tools.
Hearing that, Kunou's pout turned into a dejected frown as she couldn't refute Tanis' words. With her being a Dragon, Tanis is much more sensitive to the Dragon aspect of her [Beast God] than her. If she can't take this under control and get Tanis' approval, she could only use it when she's alone on the battlefield.
However, to train how to use [Beast God] means to use it. Without any battlefield where she can really let loose and reflect on her actions, it became a serious limitation to her training. It's her ace in a hole, but there's no actual substance to it.
The group then proceeded to talk about their sparring to review each other's mistakes and what actions they could take to make improvements.
And after a few minutes, they were fully healed with only strains on their muscles which Tanis purposely left alone for them to recover naturally. At the same time, their discussion was also finished and the only thing left to do was clean up.
They looked around and saw the destruction they wrought which made it look like that their side of the training ground is about to collapse even with their barrier still on, "I really miss Nii-san's training ground. By the time we're done talking, all of this would've returned to normal."
"...I don't want to do the cleanup... I'm tired." Tanis, who hated chores, immediately voiced out her grievances.
"We still have to do it." Kunou stood up and got ready to fix all the craters they created and the boulders they crushed. Unlike Tanis, Kunou actually likes doing these menial tasks.
"How about we ask Tessai-niisan to help us?" Tanis still didn't want to completely resign to her fate, "He should know a bit or two on how to maintain this place."
"Speaking of which, I also want to watch how they train but we ended up going at it a bit harder than usual so I forgot." Claire also stood up and turned around to the other side, only to see that there was nothing happening and they were only staring at them, "Huh? Are they done? But they didn't leave any mark on the training ground... Are they also done fixing it?"
Thanks to their skewed common sense, Claire couldn't fully understand what was happening on their side. She couldn't fathom the fact that there are people who'll forego their important training time to gain their senses back just to watch other people do it.
"...They seem to be waiting for us to finish ours?" Kunou asked with curiosity while using Youjutsu to restore the ground.
Regardless of what they wanted, the girls knew that they had to finish their work first.
Even though the damage they created was extensive enough to put the ceiling and walls to their limits they were able to restore everything to how it was before in only ten minutes. And after double-checking that there's nothing amiss, Kunou finally took down the barrier by taking back the talismans that she used before the group approached the other side.
"Thank you for waiting~!" Claire cheerfully waved at them, "Are you done with your training too?"
However, Ichigo, Uryu, Chad, and Tessai couldn't give them an answer.
Claire stopped skipping and slowly walked towards them when she saw the weird face they were making, "What's wrong?"
'We didn't do anything wrong, did we? According to Kisuke-niisan, they fought a terrible war so sights like those shouldn't be enough to make them make these weird faces.' Claire thought and the other two behind her were also the same.
